【辨析】restrict, limit, confine 三个词都有“限制”的意思，有时候可以互相通用，但侧重点略有不同。restrict 既可表示“限制发展，限制增长，限制数量”的意思（在这个意义上，restrict 和limit 是可通用的），又可表示“限制自由，限制活动”的意思（在这个意义上，restrict 不能和limit通用，但可以和confine 通用）；limit强调的是“限制数量”；confine强调的是将某人/物“限制在某个空间”(restrict 也可用于这个意思，但limit不能)。总体来说，restrict的适用范围比limit (限制数量)和confine (限制空间)都大。

真题练习
从以上列表中选择词汇填空，注意形式变化。（答案见文后）
1. To begin with, the concept of “top students” is rather __________ or sometimes downright mistaken. As I see it, all university students are “top” in one way or another. Some of them may be good at their academic subjects, while others may excel in music, sports, designing, to mention only a few. As each student is unique in his/her own way, to sort out a few and label them as “top students” is senseless and misleading. (2017/6/24, 政府应该只资助学生吗？)
首先，“学生”这个概念相当模糊，有时候甚至是完全错误的。在我看来，所有大学生在某种方式上都是“”的。有些可能精于学业，另外一些可能在音乐、体育、设计等方面超过别人。由于每个学生都以自己的方式而独特，那么选出一些并标之以“学生”就是没有意义而且具有误导性的。
2. On the other hand, the younger generation may want their fun time outside and get away from the boring daily __________. This is also important because young people are full of energy which needs to be channeled in positive forms.(2018/10/27, 年轻人应该多在家还是在外面娱乐？)
另一方面，年轻一代可能希望在外面度过快乐时光，远离无聊的日常生活。这一点也很重要，因为年轻人充满了精力，需要以积极的形式加以疏导。
3. The reasons for this trend may involve the __________that a young adult who passes directly from school to university is rather _________ in terms of general knowledge and experience of the world. （《剑桥雅思》高分范文，高中毕业生是否应该有间隔年？）
这个趋势的理由是人们意识到，高中毕业后直接上大学的年轻人在通用知识和世界经验方面相当匮乏。
4. Obviously, international charity groups can take advantage of the publicity of those famous people. They can draw more media attention and make more people __________ the importance of a certain issue. （2019/4/13, 名人支持国际救助组织是好还是坏？)
显然，国际慈善团体可以利用这些名人的曝光度。它们可以吸引更多的媒体关注，使更多的人认识到某个问题的重要性。
5. Mentally speaking, children who have more screen time are likely to have difficulty forming friendships and productive social networking. In their imagination, the world is ___________as they begin to stop engaging in real-life, preferring the fantasy world offered by technology instead.(2019/8/17, 父母应该允许孩子使用电子设备吗？)
从心理上讲，有更多屏幕时间的孩子很可能难以建立友谊和有效的社交网络。当他们开始停止融入现实生活时，在他们的想象中，世界正在缩小，转而更喜欢技术提供的幻想世界。
6. Today individuals are surrounded by all kinds of advertising, some of which is directly aimed at children and significantly influences them. It has been suggested that such advertisements ought to be __________ due to their detrimental impacts on youngsters. I am however not convinced by that.(2014/4/24，儿童广告是否应该禁止？）
今天各种广告包围了我们，有些是直接针对儿童的，极大地影响了儿童。有人提出，这样的广告应该被禁止，因为它们对孩子们有坏影响。但是我并不同意这一点。
7. It is quite common these days for young people in many countries to have a break from studying after graduating from high school. The trend is not ___________ to rich students who have the money to travel, but is also evident among poorer students who choose to work and become economically independent for a period of time.（《剑桥雅思》高分范文，高中毕业生是否应该有间隔年？）
现在很常见的是，很多国家的年轻人高中毕业后暂时不上学。这个趋势并不仅限于那些有钱旅游的富裕学生，在较穷的学生那里，这个趋势也很明显，这些学生选择去工作，在一段时间里做到经济独立。
